I find it a relief that my actions are so insignificant. I think we all take ourselves way too seriously, like it really matters if we make $X per year, or what kind of car we drive, or whether we have kids, or whether we make a mark on the world. It sort of takes the pressure off, in a way, to know that none of it really matters. Makes it easier to have fun. Sort of like the difference between playing nickel poker with your buds and playing high stakes poker in Vegas. It also sort of makes things seem more precious, like here we are in this enormous universe and we get the chance to have these experiences. Better make them count.
